2020. Amos Carpenter

Not in the Carpenter Memorial.  LINEAGE NOT PROVEN.

NOTE: Descendant testing indicates genetic descendants are a Group 2 (Providence, RI) and not a Group 3 line (Rehoboth, MA).  This shows that this Amos is not from Reuben as noted below.

While this Amos Carpenter might not be the missing child of Reuben Carpenter-7336.
(See: Number 563 in the Carpenter Memorial.  Page 110. CE# 7336)
There is enough supposition to temporarily attach his descendants into this
branch. (NOW changed!) It is striking how the latter children in Reuben's family, this Amos's
family and the son of Amos, Stephen all have children named after famous
people.
Barbara Jean Carpenter Martin of Baker, FL provided information on this line,
starting with this Amos in April 1998.  She is pursueing the lead in an effort
to provide proof.
She believed that Amos was born in Rensselaer county, NY.

I am seeking the parents of Amos Carpenter, b., April, 1787, Rensselaer Co.,
New York. At "an early age" he moved to Granville, Massachusetts. At age 18,
he joined the Licking Land Company that settled Granville, Ohio. He married
Susannah Rose, daughter of Lemuel and Achsah Hale Rose, also of Granville,
Massachusetts.  The Roses were part of the pioneer party to Ohio. Amos and
Susannah Carpenter had three sons: Timothy R., Truman W., Stephen Van
Rensselaer, all became wealthy businessmen who helped in the building of
Columbus, Ohio. Their one daughter, Louisa, married Rev.Sabin Hough. By a
second marriage to Joanna Ashton, Amos was the father of Ellen, who became a
school teacher.  Amos Carpenter died in 1858 and is buried in Columbus,
Ohio.
His parentage is my brickwall. I would appreciate any help.

MORE:
A biographical poem written by Ellen's daughter told that Amos was the son
of a Thomas Carpenter and Elizabeth Van Rensselaer. I cannot prove that.
(All other events recorded in the poem, and it was an epic, seem correct).

Hello John,
Did I ever send you my Carpenter line?
We are only 5 generations long, because I can't connect my GG-grandfather,
Amos Carpenter, to a father.  Since we have no sixth generation bearing the
Carpenter surname, the name fades out with my generation.
There is no doubt in my mind that my Amos is from the Massachusetts
Carpenters. Although he was born in Albany Co., NY, (now Rensselaer Co.), he
moved at an early age to Massachusetts. When he was just 18, he left with
the Granille Co., MA pioneers who settled Granville, Licking Co., Ohio in
1802.
He married Susannah Rose, daughter of Lemuel and Achsah Hale Rose of
Granville, MA.  They and half the town also moved to Ohio. Susannah's
ancestors settled Massachusetts and were among the earliest Puritans.
Amos and Susannah were the parents of Timothy Rose, Truman, Stephen Van
Rensselaer and Ellen.
A biographical poem written by Ellen's daughter told that Amos was the son
of a Thomas Carpenter and Elizabeth Van Rensselaer. I cannot prove that.
(All other events recorded in the poem, and it was an epic, seem correct).
Let me know if I haven't sent what I have, and if you can use orphan lines,
and I will send it my gedcom.
